My little brother and I have been at each other's throats for the past month. normally I would put this in the Gear Grinding thread but the moderators locked it (!!!@#$%>:U). Oh well!

Usually if my brother and/or I act with an attitude toward one another a tension builds up. my little brother is so offended by my 'yelling.' He doesn't know what yelling is until he's really heard me!

I am trying to think up a solution but each time I offer some he makes a snide or rude remark and the next thing you know I'm trying to break his arm while he is biting, drawing blood.

Any way to fix this? :/
 
My bother and I would put on gloves, make the garden a boxing ring and pound the crap out of each other. We are pretty much best friends though. If the boxing failed we resorted to sneaking up on each other with a sharp objects and sticking them in one another.
 
Aaaah, sibling rivalry. I still remember a couple of years ago when my younger brother was really angry with me for not letting him watch his movie while I was supposed to watch Formula 1. The tension builds up as we stab on each other's tongue until he reached his peak, he threw the TV remote control on my head and gosh my head it like a stone - the remote control was destroyed into pieces!

Soon, he realised he made a mistake and he quickly cleared up the battered remote control and told our dad that he couldn't find the remote control anymore. Classic! :lol:

Did your parents ever find out?
 
I always have fights with my younger brother, I just lock my door and play f1 2011 while he yells and bangs at the door.
 
It's what brothers do, mine shot me out of a tree with an air rifle...get over it!
 
I yell at my brother on occasion. We're a few years apart and have had a few decent fights. Nothing ever comes of it and it just ends up blowing over in a few days. Just don't worry about fighting. It'll blow over soon enough.
 
My older sister once tried to throw a rubber ball (about as big and hard as a hockey puck) at my head when she was mad at me but it missed and made a hole in the wall right behind me.

She must have had quite the arm...

I don't know how old the OP and his brother is but I've had alot of fights with my 3 year older brother in the past. But that all stopped when I was around 14 years old, we get along great since then. Don't know what triggered this 'rivalry' to stop really, I guess we just did more things together being a bit older.
 
It's what siblings do. Just like most boys will at some point try to challenge their fathers authority, younger brothers will try to challenge their older brothers.

My brother tends to come looking for a scrap whenever my mum isn't around. I like to see it as training for when things get rough later in life.
 
It's worse having a little sister, she can hit me as much and as hard as she wants and I can't do anything about it.
 
From my 15 years of experience living with my younger brother and as said, involved in several fights, all I can say it let it be. I can gurantee you after some days or the longest being a week, the relationship will be back to normal. Trust me...

Er, yes you can do something about it. Either just explain what's happening to the parents or if she's actually hitting you with her fists or anything, just simply give her a bear hug and explain that you're waiting for her to calm down and only will let go once she's calmed down.
 
I am the middle child. My brothers and I would fight all the time. All you can do is let it calm down, then sneak up on him when he's not expecting it. You know, like a coward. ;)

You need to find his boundaries and then respect them. But you will still fight. So you then need to learn to control him when he's angry. My younger brother would take 6 hours to calm down. You are not a coward if you isolate yourself by closing yourself in a room or going out. It's just self preservation and harm minimization.

But now to the war stories. My younger brother pushed me through a window after I pushed him through a wall. My older brother threw a rock that hit my head and gave me stitches. I broke through my brothers bedroom door with a cricket bat when I was 12. My younger brother chased me on foot for 3 hours and gave up because school was over for the day. My older brother tried to shoot me with 3 different devices. Then we grew up and get along real well with some stories to tell each others kids.
 
I'm a little brother and I was the worst to my big bro (he's 6 years older). I'd give him all kinds of trouble and then he'd push me or get me with a pressure point. Then I'd cry and he'd get in trouble. :lol: I want to punch younger-me in the face on his behalf just thinking about it. I was such a punk brat.
 
I'm 14 and my brother is 11. the worst part is we both are near black-belts in Tae kwon do, so it really isn't pretty.

You probably won't stop fighting like this until you're in college. Just saying.
 
I have 2 younger sisters that I hate and they hate me lol. When I was like 6 the middle child smacked me in the face with a toy horse and I still have the scar. The brawls we used to get in. Now its word wars.
